Australia is not near the equator. The northern coastline is about 1200 km south of the equator. Nonetheless, the northern part of Australia, which is closest to the equator, has a tropical climate, with two main seasons, often simply referred to as the wet and the dry. The wet season begins in October or November, and continues through to March/April, and is characterised by hot, humid weather, heavy downpours and frequent storms. The dry season is still warm, but not humid.
